Mini Challenge: Paper Piecing

Did you see the the cute little tutorial in Scrapbooks Ect. this month for a puppy made out of some hearts and circles? It would be so sweet on a kid's Valentine. I love to paper piece, but don't often take the time to do it anymore. There is a certain satisfaction out of making things yourself, though, that pre-made embellishements just can't quite muster. Here are a few of my projects that I have used paper piecing on:

I am very fortunate to own *cough* several electronic die cutting machines (my husbands big gift giving idea), so that does make it easier. I still enjoy getting out my punches or scissors and seeing what I can create, though.

Mini Challenge:Paper piece something to use on a layout, card or project made with your kit. You can use a die cut machine, punches or even just scissors. Don't forget to post it to our Mr. Linky so you can be entered to win a great Scrapbook Kit from Scraps of Darkness!

Love The Perfect Day! Everyone seems to have frames to display 12x12 scrapbook pages now. I really like Creative Memories Everyday Display since it is magnetic. If only I could get a nice piece of sheet metal to use in the frames...
